I’m a Professor at the University of Washington Information School, where I study humanity's individual and collective struggle to understand computing. I believe in an equitable, sustainable, and liberatory future in which everyone has the freedom and resources they need to thrive as themselves. I view uncritical uses of computing as a threat to that future, but believes computing can be reimagined to help achieve it. My background is in Human-Computer Interaction, Software Engineering, Computing Education, and Programming Languages.
